The Spectral Energy Distribution of QR And : Preliminary Analysis

ABSTRACT We present a preliminary multiwavelength spectral energy distribution (SED) analysis of the Galactic supersoft X‐ray source QR Andromedae (QR And). The longer‐wavelength portion, spanning from the ultraviolet to the infrared, was built from compiled archival and catalogu...

Surface charge-dependent effects of BSA-curcumin nanoparticles combined with amikacin in antimicrobial photodynamic therapy: A pilot In Vivo study of multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa skin infection

Abstract Skin infections caused by multidrug-resistant (MDR) Pseudomonas aeruginosa represent a significant therapeutic challenge because of high bacterial virulence and increasing antibiotic resistance. In this context, alternative strategies—such as nanotechnology and photodyna...

Post‐Mortem Findings in Buffy Tufted ‐ Ear Marmosets ( Callithrix aurita ) Diagnosed With Platynosomum sp.

BACKGROUND: The buffy tufted-ear marmoset (Callithrix aurita) is an endangered Brazilian primate and understanding the diseases that affect these animals is essential for improving their health and survival in conservational facilities. METHODS: This study compiled the macroscopi...

A micronova burst in the intermediate polar IGR J17014-4306

Abstract We report the detection of a short optical burst in TESS data of IGR J17014-4306, the eclipsing intermediate polar with the longest known orbital period. The burst lasts 1.56 d and shows multiple peaks, reaching (9.3 ± 0.2) × 1033 erg s−1, and releases a total energy of...
